Section PIP reads !:

1t shall be the duty of each board to meet in
the month of May, in the present and each sue
ceeding year, at such time as the president
thereof may appoint and if no meeting be ap-
pointed by him before the second Tuesday of
May, the several county Auditors shall meet on
that day, IN tie place aohere the proper railroad
for qolict said auditors constitute the board, as
aforesaid, has its principal office, or in the prin
cipal city or village upon the line of such road,
as the case may be, &c.
1t will be seen the Gazette has delib.
erately jumbled together these two Sec
tions, in order to justify the ex-Anditor.
"The Auditor of the county where such
railroad company has its principal Office, :"
says section 2771, shall be the president
of the board of appraisers. 1T shall be
the duty of each board to meet annually
In the month of May, at such
time as the president thereof may ap-
point" says section 2772. Not oue word
about "plsce" That word occurs in the
previous section, in connection with the
words "where such company has its
principal Office" &c.
This law is mandatory. and there can
be no doubt of its meaning. II the
President of the board could designate
ZanesvilIe as the meeting point OF the
appraisers of a railroad having "its prin-
cipal office" at Woodsfeld. he could as
well designate Cincinnati, or San Fran
cisco. for that matter. He has not any
such power, and, furthermore, he did
not do it. But, taking the Gazette's own
statement, how in the world can any
one travel 240 miles going to Zanesville
two trips? That item in Mr.. Barretts
bill reads: "B., q. s. c. r. r, two trips,

instead Of 24O. But they did not meet
there.

ImperTectiOn.

Impcrlection is in some sort essential to all
that we know oflife. 1t is the sign of life in
mortal body-that is to say, of state of
progress and change. Nothing that lives, is,
or can be, rigidly perfect part of it is decay
ing, part nascent. The fox-glove blossom
third-part bud, q third-part-past, third
part in full bloom-is u type of the world. In
all things that live there are certain irregulari-
ties ana deficiencies, which are not only signs
of life, but sources of beauty. No human
face is exactly the same in its lines on each
side, no leaf perfect in its lobes, no branch in
its symmetry. All admit irregularity as
they imply change and to Danish imperfec-
ton is TO destroy expression; to check exer-
ton, is 10 paralyze vitality. All things are
literally better, loveler, and more beloved for
the imperfections which have been divinely
appointed, that the law ofhuman life may be
effort, and the law of human judgment
